You won't hear me say that either side with without it's faults. But simply because one participates in a conflict, doesn't mean the fault lies with them. That would seem... more pacifistic than I would expect from you. Surely even you can admit that some fights have to be fought. And for what would seem like good reasons.

[The power of Dooku's argument is the slivers of points that Revan agrees with. But never for one second did Revan regret the fights he fought. The wars, both personal and galactic, where he did what was necessary to save the greatest amount of lives.

In war, lives were lost. And collateral was a tragic eventuality. Many people would cry at the costs of Revan's war, but never consider the personal sacrifices he'd made. But for as long as Revan had control of his own mind, he was confident he had no other choice BUT to participate. To sacrifice. A detail that had been lost on the Jedi many times. And a detail that traditionally was never found in the Sith.

That's the problem with comparing the Galaxy in terms of one facet versus another. Dark versus light, for example. A common misconception is to believe that one is inherently good and the other bad. What matters, as it does in all things, is intent.
